Just out: The Obama Administration knew far in advance of November 8th about election meddling by Russia. Did nothing about it. WHY?

Since the Obama Administration was told way before the 2016 Election that the Russians were meddling, why no action? Focus on them, not T!

Obama Administration official said they "choked" when it came to acting on Russian meddling of election. They didn't want to hurt Hillary?

President Trump is right. And the "Russia, Russia, Russia" clamor was a revisionist post-election effort to explain their defeat. Russia is a hostile country. Its intelligence services had been pursuing their agendas while Obama responded with appeasement.
Obama and Co. didn't actually care how Russia, China, Qatar and Iran harmed our national security. Because they didn't care about our national security.
Only when Hillary lost, was there a sudden "awakening" not because they started to care about national security, but because the Russian smear was a useful weapon against President Trump. As tensions with Russia ramp up, look for the left to drop the narrative and pick up another one. Once they've played through and come up with nothing, they'll have to switch to another scandal.
And then suddenly President Trump will be attacked for ruining our relationship with Russia. And then look for the media's talking heads and every lefty zombie who has been chanting about Russia for months to unquestioningly adopt the new line that Trump is taking us to war with Russia.
It'll be a wonderfully Orwellian moment to tell your kids about. "We have always been at war with Eastasia."
The truth behind all this is that the left doesn't care about national security. Only about attacking America. And that means going after anyone to the right of them.
